War and hypocrisy are known companions. When are you going to take on energy an the 1% who live in mansions manipulating the price of outdated, poisonous residual dead dinosaur products? Where the children of today need to focus their anger is at the gas station. When there is less to fight about, fewer will fight.

I agree with you, that where is is less to fight about, fewer will fight… however if there is one thing Earthians are known for is they’ll always find something to fight about. Think: organized sports and religions, aren’t those another aspect of endless wars? We could shut down gas stations overnight, and other modes of transportation would immediately take the place of outdated gas guzzlers (like my 3/4 ton GMC Savana van (without which I couldn’t do my work, most of it being helping those who can’t afford regular services…!) but I guarantee the numbties would be fighting about something else. It’s not the resources, it’s the mindset being manipulated by the rulers in the Hunger Games or earth as it is this day. As I’ve said for years to the point of being a drip in the kitchen tap, what is needed here is for one individual to awaken to pure compassion. Then another… then another – but it can never be from cooperative effort or collectivization: that’s the persistent error. “I” must be compassionate so I become compassion, then empathetic, and then my very nature will no longer allow me to hurt another, human or other. That’s what I’m working on – on myself. Good news is, I’m gaining ground here. I’ve empowered myself to live further and further away from Matrix-driven artificial means of conduct. …And, if I can do it, being a very ordinary sort of person, anyone else can. But I can’t take them there, they have to want it, and they have to do it. There can be no followers here, no novices, no students, just individuals with a set purpose from which they can never be swayed come hell or high water.
